The truth LaNelle teaches us is simple yet transformative: ask boldly for what will truly fulfill your soul, and believe you deserve to receive it. For years, LaNelle defined her joy through job titles that left her feeling "blah" and unfulfilled.

Through Vision Finder International, she learned to stop seeking completion outside herself. She focused instead on how she wanted to feel - joyful every single day. And she started acting as if she'd already received the life that matched that joyful state. LaNelle asked while believing she'd be given. And suddenly, a dream job appeared offering that daily fulfillment she'd envisioned.

LaNelle's story reveals an exhilarating truth: true abundance comes from within. When we ask from that place of inner fullness, believing we deserve to receive, the outer circumstances mysteriously reshape to match our elevated vibration. But first, we must give ourselves permission to boldly ask for - and receive - the life that lights our soul on fire. Only then can we truly win.

Listen to Episode 40 entitled “Ask and It's Given with LaNelle Owens” and discover the power of asking for what you want and then truly believing you will receive it. 

In this episode, Christy explores why we are here and how to reach our full potential. She explains that you came into this life to be great but childhood experiences can shape who you become and cause you to forget your true self. Through personal development, renewing your mindset, and forgiving the past, you can transform and reconnect to the light within you.

Your light, peace, and love already exist within you. The shift begins with accepting that this is possible for you. When triggered at work or in conflict, the root issue may lie in unhealed trauma from your past. Forgiving those who hurt you can help avoid reacting from a wounded place.

It's a lifelong process of renewing your mind through reading, listening, and applying information. Mastering one book that you read again and again will have more impact than reading a thousand books superficially. This inner transformation is how we reconnect with our true selves and rediscover our purpose in life.

Tweetables by Christy Rutherford: 

"I'm frustrated from listening to women talk about ending up in the hospital having blood transfusions being in the hospital ICU for two weeks because they were unwilling to do anything about what they have been complaining about for years. This is a life and death situation."

"Get off social media and save your own mental health first. Because you're looking at everybody, you're comparing yourself to other people, and you're not being who you are."

 "You're not in alignment with who you are, the great woman that you are, and you're pretending to be somebody else so you can be liked."

"Depression is when you relive your past more than you focus on where you're going in your future."

"Those same people cared about me; a hundred people cared about what I could do for them. They didn't look for me past outside of what I could no longer serve them in. So are y'all only giving away your gifts and what you can do for other people, and you leave nothing for yourself?"
